  • 3 egg yolks (ensure no traces of egg whites)

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • 1 tsp whole grain mustard

  • Salt, to taste

  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Preparation

Preparation:

  1. In the bowl of a standing mixer with the whisk attachment, add the egg yolks, Dijon mustard, and grain mustard.

  2. Start whisking on medium speed until smooth

  3. With the mixer still running on medium, slowly drizzle in the oil in a thin stream to emulsify the mixture

  4. Once the oil is incorporated, season with salt to taste

  5. Add the lemon juice towards the end, whisking until well combined.

Notes

Notes:

  • Make sure to add the lemon juice at the end to avoid breaking the emulsion
